The early days of a marriage are often seen as the beginning of a hopeful future. When Raja Raghuvanshi traveled to the hills of Shillong with his new wife, Sonam, friends believed they were celebrating the start of a joyful chapter. Photos from their trip showed the couple walking through the green landscapes of Meghalaya, appearing happy.
But within days, the situation took a tragic turn when Raja suddenly disappeared. What first appeared to be a missing person case soon became far more serious when his body was discovered in a remote gorge outside Shillong. Authorities determined that his death was not accidental, launching a homicide investigation.

As investigators examined phone records, location data, and digital communications, they began to uncover what they described as a planned attack. Police allege that Sonam coordinated with several individuals who were promised payment to harm Raja, sharing his location during the trip so they could intercept him.
Sonam Raghuvanshi was arrested on June 8 after investigators gathered digital evidence linking her to the alleged conspiracy. The legal process is still ongoing as authorities continue examining the roles of all involved. For Raja’s family, the tragedy has left deep grief, turning what was once a celebration of marriage into a painful reminder of betrayal and loss.
